Recipe of the Week: Maple Lemonade
I don’t know about you but when the weather gets hot I just want a nice refreshing drink, specifically a lemon or limeade. Today it was a high of 85F and my craving for lemonade was sky high. Luckily last night I picked up a bunch of lemons in anticipation for the hot weather and made myself a pitcher of lemonade, but not just any lemonade Maple Lemonade!
The inspiration behind this lemonade is a little spot that Neil and I used to go to when we lived in Montpelier called Langdon Street (unfortunately it is closed now) where we would get Maple Lemonade. Since I have never found it out anywhere else I decided that I would just have to make our own.
Maple Lemonade
- 1 1/3 cups fresh squeezed Lemon Juice, strained
- 1/2 cup Grade B Maple Syrup
- 4 cups Water
- Ice for serving
Combine the lemon juice and maple syrup in a pitcher and whisk to combine. Add the water and stir again. Fill a class with ice and pour the lemonade over. Enjoy!
